Shadowhunters: The Mortal Instruments (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 15 - A Problem of Memory - full transcript

My name is Clary and
I'm a Shadowhunter,

born to protect
mankind from demons.

A never-ending
battle against evil,

but I know who I can count on.

Simon, my oldest friend.
A vampire.

Magnus, a warlock from Brooklyn.

Luke, a werewolf pack leader
and New York City cop,

and Jace, Izzy and Alec,

three of the bravest
Shadowhunters alive.

Alone, we're strong.

Together, we are unstoppable.



Previously, on Shadowhunters...

He's a Daylighter.

You're proof that the
legends are true.

We're here for you, whatever
you need, Daylighter.

Keep quiet or I'll have
to punish you again.

The kiss that will set them free
is the kiss you most desire.

This means nothing.

Can I have a pint
of O-Neg, please?

- To go.
- You got it.

It's on me, Daylighter.

Quinn. Thanks, but it's all good.
I got it.

- Please.
- OK.

For a Daylighter, you're looking
a little pale. You okay?

- I've had better days.
- How's that?



You're living the life
we all wanna live.

You don't want to be in my shoes.
Trust me.

Day or night, your
heart can still get...

shattered.

Hey, make it two plasmas.

- Plasma?
- The hard stuff.

Your lucky night.
Just enough for two.

Don't worry, it'll make
you forget your sorrow.

L'Chaim.

Whoa.

This is strong. Real strong.

- Do you have any more of this?
- Sorry.

I know a place.

♪ I'm slipping ♪

♪ You've been sitting ♪

♪ Watching from a distance ♪

♪ You're so sick ♪

♪ How you love to watch me ♪

♪ When I kiss him ♪

What is this place?

It's a Bleeder Den.

So these people... they're
just letting themselves...

- Be bitten.
- They're mundanes

- that actually know that Vampires exist?
- A few.

They crave vampire venom
more than we crave blood.

Whoa.

Isn't this all
against the Accords?

It's kind of a grey area.
Everyone's.

Everyone's having fun and
no one is getting hurt.

Huh.

Heidi. This is Simon.

Thirsty?

I don't know. The
last time I tried

to feed on a human,
I couldn't stop.

- I almost killed...
- It's OK.

It's OK.

Just a little taste.

Just a little...

Magnus?

Mama?

Mama?

No!

There you are.

Good morning.

I'd say the same, but looks
like you haven't slept.

Should I be insulted by that?

No...

I love that face.
But this is like

the fourth morning in a row that
I've woken up to an empty bed.

Is there something
bothering you?

Nothing is bothering me.

I've even gotten used to
your adorable little snores.

Hey, I don't snore.

Look, I know you well enough
to know something's going on.

Alexander, I'm fine.

So what about you?
Have you decided

what you're going to
report to the Clave?

I'm torn. If I don't
tell the Clave

about Luke's attempt
on Valentine's life,

I'm in violation.
If they find out,

I could be de-runed.

Whatever you decide,

I'll stand by you.

Are you sure you're okay?

Positive.

That manipulative little wench.

I hate the Seelie Queen.

Look, I'm not a huge fan either.
But like her or not,

Seelie magic doesn't lie.

What happened at the
Seelie Court, it was real.

I felt it. I know Clary did too.

Whoa, slow down.

Izzy, I can't just
erase my feelings.

Do Clary and Simon a favor.
Don't go there, Jace.

I've requested that we
move Valentine to the Gard

in Idris. The Clave has
approved the transfer.

You told them about the
assassination attempt?

No. I explained to them
that moving Valentine

out of the city is the best
way to restore relations

with the Downworld. I
left Luke out of it.

It is the right decision.

But we have not given up on
finding who orchestrated

- the hit on Valentine.
- I actually have a few leads on that.

I'll get a report
in by end of day.

Great. Izzy, you'll be leading
the transfer mission.

Jace, you will assist.

We need to remove
Valentine's Circle Rune.

The new wards in Idris won't
let him pass with it on.

- Jace, do you want the honors?
- Thought you'd never ask.

Tell me that I'm making the right call.
'Cause between you and me,

- I'm just not sure I'm good at this.
- What're you talking about?

You were born for this job.

Think of it like archery.

Just trust yourself.
Don't hesitate.

And beyond that, just
cross your fingers.

Simon, please call me back.

I need to talk to you.

Come in.

We're transferring Valentine
to Idris tonight.

I assume you want to be
part of the mission.

Actually, I don't.

I have to go sort all
this out with Simon.

In person.

I know it's none of
my business, but

after what you guys
just went through,

maybe you should give
Simon some time.

No. No, I can't let him think

that what happened at the Seelie
Court is how I really feel.

Clary, Seelie magic might trick
you, but it's always true.

I know it's confusing.

But you can have feelings for
two people at the same time.

It doesn't make
you a bad person.

Simon, it's me.

If you're not gonna answer my phone
calls, you can at least talk to me.

I am so sorry.

I want you to know that...

what happened at the
Seelie Court...

- It didn't mean anything.
- You don't need to do this.

Your life was at risk.

I had to kiss Jace.
I had no choice.

I get it, Clary. I was there.

This isn't about
you kissing him.

The Seelie Queen made you reveal who
you desired most. And it wasn't me.

It was Jace.

It's a trick. That's all it was.

- Just be honest with me...
- I am.

You heard Jace, the Seelies thrive
on getting inside your head...

Clary, stop.

Don't make this harder
than it already

'cause you don't wanna
hurt my feelings.

What do you want me to do, Simon?
Just tell me.

Look me in the eye and tell me you
don't have any feelings for him.

Simon. Simon wait, please.
Look at me.

- I love you.
- Don't... don't do that.

Why...

Because you don't mean
it the way I mean it.

You never have.

Since we were kids, I've
been in love with you,

every minute

of every day.

You're the first person I
thought of when I woke up.

Always have been.

And if the Seelie Queen had
asked me that question?

Kiss the one I most desired?

No one would even come close.

There's something between you
and Jace and you can't deny it.

I don't know.

Maybe. Maybe deep down there is,

but Simon,

it's nothing like you and me.

It's nothing like it.

But it's enough.

Enough for me to know that...

kissing you...

trying to be more
than friends...

It was a mistake.

Is that tight enough?

That's better.

Go ahead, Jace.

It's not gonna stop me.

It's not some rune that
makes us who we are.

It's our blood. And
yours, my boy,

is exceptional.

Because you experimented on me.
On my mother.

Why? Why her?

Sweet Celine.

She wanted a child
so desperately.

When she and Stephen learned that
she was pregnant again, with you,

she was terrified that she
was gonna lose her baby.

So she came to me,
asking for help.

And I'm sure you were
so happy to oblige.

The injections I
gave your mother,

laced with Ithuriel's
pure angel blood

made you strong. After
her tragic death,

after I pulled you from
her womb, barely alive,

I raised you to use that blood.
I taught you...

You taught me not to feel.

You taught me that "to
love is to destroy,

and to be loved is to
be the one destroyed."

And you've proven how right
I've been all along.

Look at you.

Your love for Clary,

it will be your downfall.

Don't you dare bring
her into this!

She is as much a part
of this as you are.

Simon.

Hold up.

Hey, Luke.

Are you hungover?

Um, kinda, actually. Yeah.

Plasma?

You gotta be careful, Simon.
That stuff is strong.

I know. It was just
a one-time thing.

I went out with a
couple of friends

- and got a little carried away.
- It's understandable.

Clary told me what happened.

Listen, I just want you to know,

whatever's going on
between you two,

I'm always here for you.

You're the closest thing
to a son that I got.

Whether you like it or not.

So I'm not grounded?

- Don't push your luck.
- Ow.

It feels like Metallica
is rehearsing in my head.

Nothing a little
sleep can't fix.

- Hey, one more thing.
- Yeh.

You've been hanging out
with vamps, right?

You hear of any of 'em feeding on
a mundane in Queens last night?

What? No. Not at all. Why?

A girl was found
dead, bite marks.

Whoever did it was one
hungry vampire...

Her body was completely
drained of blood.

Wow. No, I haven't
heard anything.

But if I do, of
course I'll tell you.

Get some rest.

What do you got, Detective?

Tox screen came back clean.
Strange thing is,

the coroner said she bled out
through those "track marks."

Yeah, that is strange.

I did get prints
off her bracelet.

Any hits?

You bet. Eighteen year
old male from Brooklyn.

Name's Simon Lewis.

Luke? Hello?

Did I lose you?

I swear I hate this phone...

- Luke?
- Yeah, I'm here.

Valentine's Circle rune has been
removed and I've assembled my team.

Good. I'll feel a lot better
when he's out of the Institute.

Have you secured Magnus
for the transfer?

I think we should consider

using a different warlock.
Catarina Loss lives in...

We're talking about portalling the
Clave's Most Wanted into Idris.

There's not many Warlocks
with that clearance.

Besides, I want the best.
And that's Magnus.

Look, Magnus isn't exactly...
in a great place right now.

- He hasn't been sleeping.
- What's wrong?

I don't know. He says
nothing's wrong.

But I can tell he's not alright.

You know, some people find
it hard to ask for help.

If Magnus is hurting,
he might push you away.

Thank you for the advice,
but I know Magnus.

He needs his space. We can
use a different warlock.

There you are.

Any update on the mole?

Yeah. Whoever it was
is a clever one.

Left absolutely no trace.

But I've been auditing
personnel files.

I've found a few Shadowhunters
who have a personal stake

in wanting Valentine dead.

Family members killed,
relatives lost to the Circle.

All with enough access and
clearance to pull it off.

- Send me the list when you're done.
- By the angel.

- Aline.
- In the flesh.

It's been years.

- What are you doing here?
- I would've given you both a heads up

but I didn't want to
spook my dear cousin.

Who disappears for half a
year only to show up here.

Come here, you
gorgeous Englishman.

It's good to see you, Aline.

Sorry, excuse me.

We were all so worried about you.
We thought you were dead.

Yeah, I'm...

I'm really sorry.

Your Aunt Elodie was beside herself.
Then after she found out

that you were safe, she still hadn't
heard from you. So she asked me

to come here to make sure you're alright.
Are you...

really a Yin Fen addict?

He's clean now.

I feel terrible.

I should have called.

I guess I'm just... ashamed,

you know?

I guess I'm not as perfect
as everyone thought.

Trust me, I never thought
you were perfect.

But something is
different about you.

Well, you can tell
them all he's a hero.

He saved my life, and helped
us defeat a greater demon.

Yeah, look, I'll, um...

I'll fill you in on
all the gory details

once I finish this report.

- How about dinner? Eight o'clock?
- Absolutely.

Get up.

Tell me everything there is to
know about your cousin Aline!

Aline...? Why...?

She's in New York.

Tell me or she dies!

I really don't know how tow to
tell you this, so I'm just...

gonna say it.

I think Simon killed somebody.

He didn't do this.

Simon's shirt was in that dumpster,
soaked in the victim's blood.

His fingerprints were
on her bracelet.

The only time he was
ever fingerprinted

is when he signed up to coach Little
League. He would never hurt anyone.

There has to be some
explanation for this.

- I know Simon.
- The Simon you know is a vampire, Clary.

A vampire with a broken heart.

Demon blood...

it changes a person.

I should never have let him come
to the Seelie Court with me.

From what I gather, he wasn't
really taking "no" for an answer.

I gotta find him before
anybody else does.

Wait.

- I'm coming with you.
- No.

In his emotional state, I don't
want you anywhere near him.

He's the way he is
because of me, Luke.

Please. Let me go with you.

I need to make this right.

- Is Quinn here?
- He stepped out.

Why are you looking for Quinn?

Nothing. It's nothing.

It doesn't seem like
nothing, mi amigo.

Raphael, I think I
killed a mundane.

An innocent girl.

But I don't know if I did.
I mean, I'm not a killer.

I wouldn't hurt anyone,

but... maybe I
don't know myself.

Alright, listen.

Calm down and tell me the
last thing you remember.

Right. Um...

Quinn bought me plasma and then
took us to the bleeder den, but

that's where it all gets hazy.

I kinda remember a
girl, and her arm,

and me biting into her,

but I completely black out.
Do you think he's at the den?

No, it doesn't open
until midnight.

Why is this happening to me?
I'm a good guy.

I'm an organ donor. I
was an organ donor.

- Do we still give organs as...
- Simon. Get a hold of yourself.

- What do I do, turn myself in?
- No.

What happens if you
go hungry in prison?

Can I stay here and lay low?
Can you help me out?

Yeah. Yeah, I can help you out.

But I'm going to need
something in return.

What do you want? Anything.
Anything.

Tell me how you
became a Daylighter.

- I told you I don't know.
- I don't believe you.

And if you can't help me...

I can't help you.

The transfer is set for 0200.
Jace, arm up the transport team.

I want everyone carrying
additional weaponry.

Duncan, prepare Valentine's restraints.
The rest of you

secure the perimeter. Dismissed.

Sebastian, I have to be honest.

I'm really worried about you.

Don't be.

I'm happy.

Happier than I've
been in a long time.

I just don't get it.
You are the squarest,

most rule-abiding guy I know.

And then you suddenly vanish
without telling anyone?

It just doesn't add up.

Look, I'm not...

I'm not proud of it. But if anyone
should understand, it should be you.

- And why is that?
- That summer I came to Alicante,

you were secretly seeing that
girl, the one with the dimples.

- Carolyn.
- Yeah. You kept it such a secret.

Everyone thought you simply
hadn't found the right boy.

They still think that.
Unless you blabbed?

I would never do that.
I gave you my word.

But you know how it feels to
have everyone in the world...

see you one way but actually
being the exact opposite.

You know, I actually
like taking risks.

Yeah, sure, the Yin Fen
was a mistake, but...

it led me to what I
believe is my destiny.

Being here.

Sadly Aunt Elodie isn't
very happy about it.

I just got off the
phone with her.

She's... she's heartbroken.

Actually, I'm a bit worried.

Do you mind spending
a few days with her?

I'd go myself but they
really need me here.

Yes.

Of course.

- I can leave tonight.
- Thank you.

I mean, that is, of course,
not until I've shown you

this fabulous Indian
place around the corner.

- My favorite.
- Why do you think I picked it?

C'mon, you have to remember...
What did you do?

Care for seconds?

Police! Freeze!

Put your hands on your head!

Drop to your knees.

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry I bit her.

It was an accident.

You're under arrest for the
murder of Heidi McKenzie.

- You have the right to remain silent.
- Anything you say...

Vampires aren't as easy to track, but
I don't think he's too far away.

"Not far away" doesn't help us.
I need a direction.

Turn left. Up here.

So, when we do find
him, what happens then?

I mean, if for some reason it turns
out he really did do this...

he's a Vampire. You
can't just arrest him.

That's why we need to find
him before the police do.

Then what?

We're supposed to turn
him over to the Clave.

Can't we just keep this quiet?

You know, like Alec did for you.

If it's true, if Simon
did somehow lose control

and make some horrible mistake,
we can't just give up on him.

Look, whatever mess he's
gotten himself into,

I promise I'm not
giving up on Simon.

They say the bad guy always goes
back to the scene of the crime.

I always thought it was a myth,

but since I'd run out of leads,
I thought, hey, why not?

So why'd you do it?

- I told you. It was an accident.
- Right.

So you just "accidentally"

bit the woman and
drained her of blood?

I can't help myself. I guess
you can call it a compulsion.

Odd compulsion.

You know, I've seen plenty of
different ways to kill people,

but biting into a girl's feet?

- That's a new one.
- Her feet?

No. That can't be right.

The M.E. says the wounds below
her ankle were the most recent.

- I didn't do this.
- Excuse me?

Ever since I was a kid, feet
have totally grossed me out.

- Even women's feet.
- You know what grosses me out? Murder.

There's no way I could've done this.
I didn't kill her.

Seriously? An anti-foot fetish?
That's your defense? If I were you,

I'd come up with something
a little more believ...

So when I found your
front door open,

I was afraid someone broke
into the apartment.

- Yeah, thanks for calling me.
- No problem.

Hey!

Quinn!

Ah, I heard you were
looking for me.

It was you. The girl from last
night, Heidi, you killed her,

- didn't you?
- It was an accident.

Accidents happen.
She knew the risks.

- Don't worry about it.
- A woman is dead!

And I'm not letting
you get away with it.

I'm telling everyone, Luke,
the Shadowhunters...

Yeah... I...

I can't let you do that.

Daylighter or not,

I'm not gonna let
you rat me out.

- What are you doing here?
- Trying to track down a murderer.

Stay out of it.

This is vampire business. I
can take care of him myself.

- I can't let you do that.
- Leave Simon alone.

I'm not talking about the Daylighter.
Quinn killed the girl.

Let's go.

Simon!

I didn't kill that girl.

We know.

Are you okay?

No. Not really.

Mama?

- No!
- Weet je waarom ze dit deed? Door jou.

Je bent een gruwel!

Magnus?

Magnus.

Well, hello.

I was just about to make myself a drink.
Want one?

No. We're transporting
Valentine to Idris.

Even more reason... We can toast

to Valentine's highly
anticipated departure.

I love you, and I know
something's wrong.

Whatever it is,
I'm here for you.

- I appreciate it. But I'm fine.
- No, you're not.

I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna
leave until you talk to me.

Remember when you said "when things
get crazy, don't push me away"?

When I was tortured
in Valentine's body,

that agony rune

made me relive my worst memory.

And now...

I can't get it out of my head.

Every time I close my eyes...

Hey...

What is it?

Remember I told you how I found
my mother dead by her own hand?

My stepfather found
me shortly after.

He screamed at me.

He called me an abomination.

What?

He was right.

He blamed me for her suicide.

He said that she hated herself
for giving birth to a monster.

So I lashed out.

With all the magic I had.

I burned him, Alexander.

Right where he stood.

I murdered my stepfather.

You were just a boy.

You weren't in control
of your powers.

Yes, actually, I was.

I never wanted you
to see this...

terrible,

ugly side of me,

of my past...

Hey.

There's nothing ugly about you.

I wanted to say goodbye to Sebastian.
I wonder where he ran off to.

I'm sure he'll be back soon.

So, when are you going
to come visit Alicante?

Soon.

As long as you promise
your mom won't drag us

to the Accords Hall for
another Clave assembly.

I definitely can't promise that.

I still don't get what your
obsession is with this restaurant.

Have a seat.

I want to talk to you
about Simon Lewis.

Luke, I... I've never
seen anything like it.

It was straight out of
some superhero movie.

- Did you mention it to anyone?
- No. I took your advice.

I don't want people
to think I'm crazy.

I'm sorry you had
to see that, Ollie.

What? What do you
mean you're sorry?

- Luke, what are you talking about? I...
- I'm not proud

of what I have to do, but
it's for your own protection.

- The Shadow World is a dangerous place.
- The Shadow what?

And who the hell is he?

You will forget the
name Simon Lewis.

He will no longer exist to you.

Daniel Quinn murdered
Heidi McKenzie.

He's disappeared.

We will never find him.

Simon...

Sorry. Izzy said I could
wait here for you.

Of course. I'm... I'm
so glad you're here.

This hasn't been easy for me.

I mean, I thought dying was bad.
This is way worse.

I'm so sorry.

That night on the Promenade,
when we first kissed,

we made a vow.

Remember?

How could I forget?

We promised that we would
always be friends.

No matter what.

I'm a man of my word.

When I make a vow, I uphold it.

I can't imagine a world
without you in it, Fray.

Me neither.

But I need time.

How much time?

I'm not sure.

Well...

Whenever you're ready.

I will be here.

Always.

Valentine Morgenstern,
by order of the Clave,

you are hereby remanded
to the Gard in Idris.

I may be in a cell, but at
least I'll be in Alicante...

where the air doesn't
reek of Downworlders.

Get him out of here.

- Where's the prisoner?
- I don't know,

- Consul Dieudonne.
- What happened to Duncan?

Where the Angel is Valentine?

I did as you asked.

I brought Valentine here.
Now, please...

let my family go.

Thank you, Duncan.

You did uphold your
end of the bargain.

But I'm afraid that I
cannot uphold mine.

What do you want from me?

Hello,

Father.
